Description
|
|
•
|
The function tpsform(p, var, order) creates a truncated power series (a series data structure) in var. This truncated series is equal to p up to, but not including, the term containing x^order.
|
•
|
In some cases tpsform can determine when the series is exact and so it drops the term. Formal power series created using powpoly fall into this category.
|
•
|
The command with(powseries,tpsform) allows the use of the abbreviated form of this command.
